described in Exhibit 'A' attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the
"Property").
2. Owner has applied to the City for issuance of the above identified permit to authorize the
development of the Property (the "Development Permit").
3. The City has determined that additional public improvements may be necessary in the
future in order to allow Owner to proceed with development and, therefore, the Property
would be suitable for development as requested by Owner if certain public
improvements as described in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference (the "Improvements") are constructed.
4. The Municipal Code of the City of Carlsbad requires the dedication of the necessary
rights-of-way for and the construction by Owner of the Improvements or an agreement
0 ICED\LandDev\PROJECTS\PDIPD 2018\PD2018-0031 Huelsebusch Residence -Levy\B & AINEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT.doc 01/25/13
for the same for certain developments or building projects such as that proposed by
owner.
5. The Owner has requested that the City approve the Development Permit prior to the
construction of the Improvements.
6. The City is willing to approve the Development Permit prior to the construction of the
Improvements as requested by the Owner if Owner approves of and consents to the
formation of an assessment district to include the Property for the purpose of financing
the construction of the Improvements.
7. For properties subject to the Alternative Streets Design process adopted by City Council
Resolution, no assessment district shall be formed until completion of the Alternative
Streets Design process.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED between the parties as follows:
Section 1. Recitals. The foregoing recitals are true and correct.
Section 2. City's Obligations. The City shall approve the Development Permit promptly
following the execution of this Agreement by the Owner and compliance with all applicable City
ordinances and other requirements.
Section 3. Owner's Obligations.
Section 3.01. Owner's Consent to and Approval of Formation of an Assessment
District and Levy of Assessments. In consideration for the approval of the Development Permit
prior to the completion of the construction of the Improvements, Owner hereby consents to and
approves of:
A. the inclusion of the Property in an assessment district which may be formed by the City
Council of the City for the purpose of financing the construction of the Improvements (the

Section 4. Owner's Representations and Waiver of Rights.
Section 4.01 Owner's Representations. Owner hereby represents as follows:
A. Owner understands and acknowledges that:
1. Article XIIID of the Constitution of the State of California ("Article XIIID")
and the Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act (Government Code
Section 53750 and following) (the "Implementation Act") (Article XIIID and the
Implementation Act may be referred to collectively as the "Assessment Law")
establish certain procedures and requirements which apply when any agency
such as the City considers the levy of assessments upon real property.
2. The requirements established by the Assessment Law include the
following:
a. The proportionate special benefit derived by each parcel to be
assessed must be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital
cost of the improvement for which the assessment is to be levied;
b. No assessment may be imposed on any parcel which exceeds the
reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that
parcel from the improvement for which the assessment is to be levied;
c. Only special benefits are assessable; and
d. Parcels within an assessment district that are owned or used by
any agency, the State of California or the United States of America shall
not be exempt from assessment unless the agency proposing to levy the
assessment can demonstrate by clear and convincing evidence that
those publicly owned parcels in fact receive no special benefit from the
improvement for which the assessment is being levied.
3. The procedures established by the Assessment Law include:
a. The agency which proposes to levy an assessment (the "Agency")
shall identify all parcels which will have a special benefit conferred upon
Q:ICED\LandDev\PROJECTSIPDIPD 2018\PD2018-0031 Huelsebusch Residence -Levy\B & AINEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT.doc 01/25/13
3
them from the improvement for which the assessment is proposed to be
levied and upon which an assessment is proposed to be imposed.
b. All assessments must be supported by a detailed engineer's
report prepared by a registered professional engineer certified by the
State of California.
c. Prior to levying a new assessment , the Agency must give written
notice by mail (the "Assessment Notice") to the record owner, i.e., the
owner of a parcel whose name and address appears on the last
equalized secured property tax roll, of each parcel proposed to be
assessed. The Assessment Notice must include: (i) the total amount of
the proposed assessment chargeable to the entire assessment district, (ii)
the amount chargeable to the record owner's parcel, (iii) the duration of
the assessment payments, (iv) the reason for the assessment, (v) the
basis on which the amount of the proposed assessment was calculated,
and (vi) the date, time and location of a public hearing on the proposed
assessment.
d. The Assessment Notice must contain an assessment ballot that
includes a place where the person returning the assessment ballot may
indicate his or her name, a reasonable identification of the parcel, and his
or her support or opposition to the proposed assessment. The
Assessment Notice must also include, in a conspicuous place, a
summary of the procedures for the completion, return and tabulation of
assessment ballots.
e. At the time, date and place stated in the Assessment Notice, the
Agency shall conduct a public hearing upon the proposed assessment. At
such public hearing, the Agency shall consider all objections or protests, if
any, to the proposed assessment. At such public hearing, any interested
person shall be permitted to present written or oral testimony.
f. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the Agency shall tabulate
the assessment ballots submitted, and not withdrawn, in support or
opposition to the proposed assessment. If there is a majority protest
against the imposition of a new assessments, the Agency may not
impose the assessment. A majority protest exists if the assessment
ballots submitted, and not withdrawn, in opposition to the proposed
assessment exceed the assessment ballots submitted, and not
withdrawn, in favor of the proposed assessment. In tabulating the
assessment ballots, the assessment ballots shall be weighted by the
amount of the proposed assessment to be imposed upon each parcel for
which an assessment ballot was submitted.
4. The description of the requirements and procedures established by and
contained in the Assessment Law set forth above are intended only to
summarize certain of such requirements and procedures.
5. The City would not agree to issue the Development Permit prior to the
construction of the Improvements unless the City is assured that it will be legally
Q:ICED\LandDev\PROJECTS\PDIPD 2018\PD2018-0031 Huelsebusch Residence -Levy\B & AINEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT.doc 01/25/13
4
able to impose the Assessment on the Property. The assurance of the City's
legal ability to impose the Assessment on the Property is both a material
inducement to and a material consideration for the City to enter into this
Agreement and agree to issue the Development Permit prior to the construction
of the Improvements.
B. Owner has had a reasonable opportunity to thoroughly read and review the
Assessment Law in its entirety and has further had a reasonable opportunity to
consult with Owner's attorney regarding the Assessment Law and the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
Section 4.02 Waiver of Rights
A.
B.
Section 5.
1. In consideration of the approval by the City of the Development Permit
prior to the construction of the Improvements, Owner hereby waives Owner's
rights under the Assessment Law to:
2. object or protest the ordering by the City of the construction of the
Improvements and the imposition of the Assessment at such public hearing so
long as the amount of the Assessment does not exceed the amount set forth in
Exhibit C hereto adjusted for inflation pursuant to Section 3.01 B above;
3. submit an assessment ballot in support of or in opposition to the
imposition of the Assessment so long as the amount of the Assessment does not
exceed the amount set forth in Exhibit C hereto adjusted for inflation pursuant to
Section 3.01 B above; and
4. file or bring any protest, complaint or legal action of any nature
whatsoever challenging the validity of the proceedings to form the Assessment
District and/or the validity of the imposition of the Assessment on the Property.

Assessment on the Property and, therefore, be willing to enter into this
Agreement and agree to approve the Development Permit prior to the
construction of the Improvements, Owner represents and warrants that Owner
has knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived for and on behalf of Owner,
Owner's successors, heirs, assigns and/or transferees, each and every one of
the rights specified in Section 4.02A above.
For properties subject to the Alternative Streets Design process adopted by City
Council Resolution, nothing in this waiver of rights section is intended to waive
the owner's ability to participate in the Alternative Streets Design process.
Alternative Satisfaction of Owner's Obligations
Owner's obligations under Section 3 above may be satisfied by paying the amount set
forth in Exhibit "C" adjusted for inflation at any time prior to the formation of the assessment in
which case a release of this Agreement shall be recorded in the office of the San Diego County
Recorder.
